Writing

June!

You know, I'm not a student. I no longer teach. I'm retired and have no assigned schedule. So, why am I so tickled that it's finally summer vacation? This makes no sense to me, but it's so. (I confess, I also haunt school supply sales in August, often succumbing to an attractive pencil box or a package of pens.)
I'm working on several writing projects at this time, so the extra time will be put to good use. (Extra time? Elsi, you're retired!)
And I'm planning two summer trips: Oregon Christian Writers near Portland in late July, with a jog into British Columbia to visit my friend Shannie. And Camp Lake Hubert's 100th anniversary party over Labor Day. My grandparents were riflery directors there; Mother and I were both campers. That will be like having a time machine, I think!
June ... green grass (that will need to be mowed) ... bright flowers (that should be weeded) ... dog walks (sore hip and too-hot days) ...
Okay, ignore the parenthetical comments ... I'm looking forward to summer!
